    Label fields don't appear on Report

    thanks for the help Jim. I actually solved the problem. On the page setup there was a checkbox checked that said Print Data only. I guess that was making it so no labels anywhere on the report would print. I've never noticed that check box but thankfully I found it now. Thanks for the help...

    Label fields don't appear on Report

    Thanks Jim...all of them are set to Visible=Yes. I've never seen a problem like this so it is really confusing me. I've checked out all of the properties for the labels, pageheader and report and can't find anything out of the ordinary. Any other ideas? Thanks, Brian

    I'm printing a report with headings in the page Header. They are just standard label fields. The problem is the labels do not appear on the preview or printed forms of the report although they are there in design view. I've tried adding new labels to every section of the report and none of...

    Book Recommendations?

    I have to agree with Terry. I have the 2000 Desktop and 2000 Enterprise versions and both have proved to be very helpful. They also come with a CD that demonstrate all of the examples they use. Brian
